Mountains, Music & Motorcycles 2019

By: RR_231502
On: August 27, 2019

Mountains, Music & Motorcycles is an annual event held in what’s known as Arkansas’ Folk Music Capitol, the small Ozark city of Mountain View. Mountain View’s population typically consists of approximately 3,000 people but during this event that all changes.

In mid to late August during Mountains, Music & Motorcycles, that small Ozark community grows by leaps and bounds from Thursday to Saturday during the event. This gallery shows photos that were taken on Saturday during the motorcycle games held at 10:30 a.m. It was a typical very hot Arkansas August day, so the heat shortened our day to cover all the events held on Saturday. I think these photos are the ones that really mattered.

Mountains-Music-Motorcycles2019-1This game is called the slow ride because the biker rides the motorcycle as slow as possible without ever touching the ground. Once the riders touch the ground with the foot, they are disqualified.

Mountains-Music-Motorcycles-2019-water-balloon-toss
Mountains-Music-Motorcycles2019-48This is the water balloon toss. The balloon is tossed over the above pipe on one side and must be caught on the other side by the motorcycle passenger. If not caught, well, it's a nice splash of water on a hot day. The bikers with the best time and most caught balloons win.
